Take care, fly away risks this week end!... (Paris time on the app)

it was 5 for my area according to the app, and i flew it with no problems. i will go and fly it in k6 conditions too and report back

I case of a fly away,  is it as simple as throwing the switch in to attitude mode and bringing it back under control?

Thanks for the info but Nothing to worry about. I fly in all kinds. Just be ready to drop it into atti if it starts going funny on you and drive her home.  If you cant fly in manual mode, you might want to learn ;-)
I DO check for storms and magnetic interference but it is just to learn about the possibility of issues.

yea well, people seem to forget that! but the k index can also have effect on the rc to p3 link!! still, i will fly it with k-1000,000. lol

So my app was going between 4-6 all day BUT UAV weather forecast website said between 2-3 all day today.  Which should I believe?  Oh, and when I was out flying it was at 5 and had no issues, other than my GO app disconnecting, but that had nothing to do with solar storms, flying monkeys, abdominal snowmen, or the Loch Ness Monster.

abdominal snowmen? now that sounds like a bad belly ache to me.

No problems all day. I flew 12 batteries with nothing odd to speak of.

Of course. 12 *is* an even number?
Wait - your batteries have wings?

What's that old Groucho Marx thing - "I shot an elephant in my pajamas this morning. How he got into my pajamas is beyond me."

Or the 11 O'Clock news - "Man shot in neighborhood." Guess he never had a neighborhood-ectomy!

hard to control on a windy day, yes. but still doable and better than the alternative.
i am glad you managed to get it down safely!!
